BEAVERTON, Ore. -- Nick Brossette's team, the Vapor Carbon, didn't make the championship game of The Opening's 7-on-7 tournament, but he'll have a lot of future LSU teammates, and Louisiana buddies, to watch.

Vapor Carbon, which features Brossette, a long-time LSU commit and the nation's No. 7-ranked running back out of University High in Baton Rouge lost 21-14 Thursday afternoon to the Land Shark, a team full of players of Louisiana interest.

The Land Sharks feature LSU commit Kevin Toliver, the nation's No. 1 cornerback, highly-regarded Louisiana wide receiver Tyron Johnson and Louisiana cornerback Donte Jackson. They will play Apocalypse, a team that features Louisiana products Justin Reid and Xavier Lewis, who committed to LSU Tuesday at The Opening, in the 7-on-7 final.

Brossette and fellow Louisiana prospect Arthur McGinnis, teammates on Vaper Carbon, just missed a chance to be there instead of the Land Sharks.

"It was fun," Brossette said. "All the competition was great."

Brossette committed to the Tigers shortly before the start of last season, making him, along with Toliver, one of the longest-committed members of the Tigers' class.

That didn't mean he was interested in being LSU's resident recruiter.

"I just enjoyed being around the guys," he said. "I'm just enjoying the experience while I'm here."

If Brossette seems to have been around a while, it's because he has. He's already a four-time 1,000-yard rusher and holds the state's career record for rushing touchdowns in a career with 132. So prodigious is Brossette that he rushed for over 1,000 yards for the Cubs' high school varsity team as an eighth grader, but there is one thing he hasn't accomplished -- winning a state title.

"We had a great run last year," said Brossette of a Cubs team that featured current LSU freshman Garrett Brumfield on the offensive line and 2017 LSU commit Dylan Moses. "We want to try to take that a step further."

For Thursday, he had to settle for watching a lot of his future LSU teammates and Louisiana prep rivals compete in The Opening's championship game.
